Jacob Kyle “Kyle” McHorse, 30, of Blue Mound, Kan., died on Saturday, July 23, 2016, at his home after a life long battle with seizures. Kyle was born Oct. 24, 1985, in Brownwood, Texas, to Randall and Kathy (Galloway) McHorse.

In spite of his health, Kyle was an outgoing person who never met a stranger. He was an outdoorsman who enjoyed fishing for bass and catfish and hunting morel mushrooms. He loved animals and raised four ducks. However, his greatest love in life and his favorite thing to do was spending time and playing with his two sons Thomas and Aiden.

Kyle was preceded in death by his paternal grandfather Stephen McHorse; his maternal grandparents James and Dean Galloway; and one uncle Doug Galloway.

Survivors include his parents, Randy and Kathy McHorse; two sons Thomas James and Aiden Scott McHorse; one brother Stephen Shane McHorse and wife, Heather; two sisters Amy Nicole Lunsford and husband, Scott, and Lindsey Boswell and husband, Chaz; three aunts Karey Gail Morelock and husband, Danny, Sandi Fincher and Suzie Mould; three nieces; six nephews; and a host of friends.

 

A Celebration of Life for Kyle will be at 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 30, 2016, at Blue Mound City Park. The family suggests memorials to Epilepsy Foundation in care of the Schneider Funeral Home, PO Box J, Mound City, KS 66056.
